"I believe that emotional or psychological healing begins within ourselves through powerful use of our voices to tell our own stories, in our own words and in our own time. I provide clients a safe, nurturing space to explore their greatest challenges. Through my empathic, integrative approach, my clients move toward greater self-understanding as to how to manage their lives.

"Feeling better. I believe that is the central goal people want when they pick up the
phone to start therapy.They are dealing with painful emotions; anxiety, depression, relationship problems, past traumas, family conflicts and so on.

I would like to help you in that achievable pursuit."

Bipolar Disorder (Manic Depression) TherapistsBipolar disorder, also known as manic depression, is a chronically recurring condition involving moods that swing between the highs of mania and the lows of depression. Depression is by far the most pervasive feature of the illness, and the manic phase is usually a mix of irritability, anger, and depression, with or without euphoria. The elation may manifest as unusual energy and overconfidence, playing out in bouts of overspending or promiscuity.

While the depression of bipolar disorder can resist treatment, mood swings and recurrences can often be delayed or prevented with a mood stabilizer, alone or combined with other drugs. Therapy is an important adjunct to drugs, especially for dealing with the work and relationship problems that can accompany the disorder.
